Q: Why is free book only appeared in 32 stores?

I thought only paid books will appeared in 32 stores (with paid book support). But when I published a free book, iTunes Connect informed me that the book is "On 32 Stores".

Why? I can't even see my books in Singapore, which allows me to download free books (although most are loyalty free books).

Can someone verified that free iBooks can appeared in all stores and not just 32? Thanks!

The list you sent clearly shows that FREE iBooks are available in all stores.

Did you take a look?

I met the same problem.

ItunesConnect page only show my books are available on 32 stores.

But by this link, free books should available at all stores:http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3599

Right now, it seems that Apple defines free books as books they upload themselves (Apple own books or free give aways, etc).

Does not seem that we can upload free books to other stores. These caught me by surprise!
